Claire turned her head slightly, meeting Ryan's eyes.

"I was never the one responsible for the two of us getting switched at birth."

"I'd rather I'd grown up in an orphanage entirely."

"So don't you dare use guilt to convince me I'm the one who owes this family something."

With that, she walked into her building without a backward glance.

Ryan stood on the sidewalk a long time after she'd gone.

He smoked through two more cigarettes before finally leaving.

Claire didn't pull out her phone until

  • The Billionaire's Secret Heirs: Divorcing the Man Who Betray   Chapter 200: Today’s Events Will Not Be Left Unresolved

    Claire Bennett could only manage a bitter smile.In her heart she sighed: it seemed she was destined never to get along with her mother-in-law. And if the situation truly turned out that bad, it was unclear what choice Jonathan would make when caught in the middle. Claire could already imagine the explosive argument that would erupt between him and Eleanor. Then what? Mother and son would completely sever their relationship because of this.She shook her head, preferring to believe that Eleanor had only been used as a cover for the whole scheme. Perhaps she had not really been involved at all.But regardless of the truth, the most urgent task was to find the real Eleanor Reid.Cole shook his head. “The signal in this courtyard is blocked. Madam, please wait a moment I’m going out for a bit.”He slipped quickly through the door.Claire picked up her teacup and drank several mouthfuls in succession, trying to quell the simmering fire in her chest.Just then a series of loud *bang-bang*

    Claire Bennett stared at the fake Eleanor, watching the woman spit those vicious words with an almost ferocious expression. Yet Claire herself showed no intense emotion, no panic, no fear.Only when the impostor’s face finally registered surprise and doubt did Claire speak, her voice calm and steady. “So all of this was indeed planned by Lily Marlowe. She’s trying to ruin me. But as a lawyer she knowingly broke the law. Could it be that she still has some trump card up her sleeve?”The fake Eleanor gave a heavy snort. “When did I say Miss Marlowe planned it or that Miss Marlowe did it? I did it all by myself! Even if you want to settle scores with me later, then come on. Anyway, a life that’s already ruined isn’t mine. Anyway, I’ve already achieved my goal of destroying you. As for you don’t even think about trying to pin this on Miss Marlowe! I just don’t like you! I just want to stand up for Miss Marlowe. Why should a latecomer surpass the old one? Why is it that Miss Marlowe en

    Whether it was the confrontation with Lily Marlowe or the slap that followed, Claire Bennett was certain of one thing: the real Eleanor Reid would never have remained indifferent.Even if Eleanor had chosen to favor Lily in that moment, she would at least have shouted “Stop!” the instant the slap landed.Yet she had not.She had stayed completely silent almost mute.Claire’s voice cut through the quiet. “Drew! Bring Madam out.”“Yes.”Drew rose and collapsed.He hit the floor and did not move again.Claire stared in shock. Cole immediately pulled her backward. “Drew!”No response.On the bed, the woman who looked like Eleanor slowly raised her head. A strange smile curved her lips. “Even if you don’t come in, you still can’t escape today.”Claire’s blood ran cold. “You’re not Eleanor Reid!”The woman threw off the covers and stood. “Unfortunately, you were so busy arguing that you only just realized I’m a fake. It’s too late now.”She walked toward them.Makeup could be imitated. Mast

    Claire Bennett’s voice remained cold and even. Her calm reply made Lily Marlowe secretly clench her fists.This Claire Bennett was definitely not to be underestimated.Yet Lily was, after all, a seasoned lawyer who had weathered countless storms and faced every kind of criminal in the courtroom. Even though Claire’s composure surprised her slightly, she still regarded the woman as extremely cunning and vicious. At this point the exchange had become a pure psychological battle.Lily kept her outward expression perfectly calm, offering only a cold smile that showed no ripple of emotion.“I came to the banquet at the invitation of the Wren family. Only after I arrived was I told that my aunt happened to be here these past two days as well. As far as I know, my aunt has been suffering from frequent headaches lately. If it weren’t for Jonathan always making her angry, she wouldn’t be in this state. So she’s been staying at the Wren residence for the past two days while the family members p

  • The Billionaire's Secret Heirs: Divorcing the Man Who Betray   Chapter 196: Protecting Each Other! We Came Prepared!

    Because the matter concerned the Reid family, Melody Wren still went to inquire herself.Sure enough, she learned that an old servant in the Reid household had died not long ago an elderly woman whose position had been almost equal to that of President Reid’s wet nurse. The circumstances of her death were mysterious. Judging from Lawyer Marlowe’s words, the old maid’s death was inextricably linked to this fake heiress…It was only President Reid’s power and status that allowed the woman to stand here unharmed.Melody Wren was extremely righteous and hated evil with a passion. She could not tolerate injustice of any kind, and she especially despised hypocritical, calculating people who pretended to be honest and kind to her face. Therefore she gave Claire Bennett not a single friendly glance. She also believed Claire’s deliberate use of the word “mother-in-law” was nothing more than an attempt to pressure her with the Reid family name.Did the woman really think that caution toward the

  • The Billionaire's Secret Heirs: Divorcing the Man Who Betray   Chapter 195: Entering the Wren Family, Searching for Mother-in-Law

    Eleanor Reid’s voice sounded hoarse on the other end of the line. “I’ve run into some trouble with the Wren family, and only you can help me. By the way don’t tell Jonathan. Otherwise he’ll start arguing with me again.”Claire Bennett frowned in confusion. Not tell Jonathan? Was this about Jade Peak Mountain again? Remembering the last argument between mother and son, she already felt a headache coming on. She half-suspected their zodiac signs simply clashed.After hanging up she didn’t dare delay. She changed clothes at once and prepared to leave. If she couldn’t tell Jonathan, she could at least tell Leo.When she asked Leo for the car she added carefully, “If I’m late this evening and your master asks, just say I went to the Wren family. However… I’m not going to see Zoe.”The implication was clear enough. With Jonathan’s intelligence he would understand.“Yes, Madam.”Claire took Cole and Drew and left the manor.When Cynthia Reid learned that her sister-in-law had gone out agai
